Hi Sravan_k​,

I believe you have to add the following.

[IncludeFolderTrees]

<AppData>\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations

Please let me know if this works for you.

Ijdemes,

Is there any way we can persist user mapped network drives across the VDI sessions?

Thank you,

Vkmr.

Hi Sravan_k​,

You can use below entries for that.

[IncludeRegistryTrees]

HKCU\Network

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Map Network Drive MRU

Hi ijdemes,

How can we find the registry that we have to persist for respective user activity?

for example I am trying to find the registry entries that are related to "personalize settings" of user windows color settings

Thank you,

Vkmr.

Hi Sravan_k​,

You can use Application Profiler for that. See some helpful links below.

You can additionally use RegShot (before/after snapshotting and compare) or ProcMon.

Hope this may help you along the way.
